dc.description.abstractThe Universal Basic Education programme (UBE) launched by president Olesegun Obasanjo is a significant milestone in trading the problems militating against basic education in the country. Critically, however, its scope does not include girl-child education specifically as it does to adult and non-formal education. This has led to the UBE being a gender neutral intervention with dire consequences for universal enrolment, retention and completion. Using primary and secondary sources of data collection this research assesses UNICEF’s Integrated Growth and Development (IGD) intervention strategies, vis-à-vis the Kaduna State Universal Basic Education programme. Approaching it from the girl-child enrolment, we analyzed how the empowerment and service delivery strategies of the IGD have impacted on girl-child enrolment in the focal schools in Kaduna state. Using frequency tables and multiple regression technique, and complemented by systematic observation, the findings indicate that there has been significant improvement in enrolment in all the focal schools, though not up to the 20% envisaged by UNICEF. We recommend the adoption of more rational policy development process similar to the one used by the UNICEF, the devolution of more responsibilities to community based stakeholders and the encouragements to voluntary organizations to set up schools.en_US
